...defeat by Washington and Jefferson last Saturday, there has been a general shake-up in the Yale line. Bunker and Stillman have been moved to end positions, Wiley is relegated to the substitutes, and White has been put at centre in place of Walden. None of the first string back-field except King reported for practice yesterday, but all are expected on the field today. The injury to Carter two weeks ago makes it extremely doubtful whether he will be able to resume his old place at end again this season. Talbot will probably be in the game by Saturday...
...football situation continues to assume a brighter outlook with the return of the regulars, and although some of the first string men are not as yet in condition to scrimmage, they are taking light workouts and from present indications will be able to play Saturday against Michigan. Captain Brickley, Soucy, D. P. Morgan, and Sweetser are the first string men who are out at present. Brickley was able to leave the hospital Sunday afternoon and is convalescing rapidly at his home; D. P. Morgan will be out of the game for another week on account of his broken hand; Soncy...
Signals, a short drill in defensive work, punting practice for the backs, and a little special coaching of individual men, made up the bulk of the afternoon's work. Parson's work in Saturday's game was of sufficient merit to place him at left tackle as the first string man for the position. He will be given a thorough try-out this week and will receive careful individual instruction in the finer points of playing in the line...
...decisive play. However, the University team lacked so many of the regulars, that yesterday's play it hardly a fair criterion. Whitney, at fullback, showed more than he has for the last two years, and from present indications he will make a valuable addition to the first string substitutes. Coach Leary is rapidly developing Soucy as an end, his playing at that position yesterday being a decided improvement over the previous day's work. Pennock's knee still keeps him out of scrimmage, and Bradlee and Hardwick were out of the line-up; so it was far from a first...
Nearly all of the first string men were in the University line-up for dummy practice and signal drill, but substitutes displaced them in the long scrimmage against the second team. In the scrimmage Parson played left tackle, Atkinson was at centre, Withington and Underwood alternated at right guard and Francke and Whitney replaced Hardwick and Bradlee in the backfield. The University team scored four times against Team B, and kept its own goal line un-crossed. Whitney, Francke with an 80-yard run, McKinlock and King each scored a touchdown. Willcox substituted for Swigert at quarter...
